This has been discussed for a bit on here and the Class B forum.
The Transit has a lot of the niceties of the Sprinter. However, it can be around the same price as a Sprinter, especially with a diesel. The EB gasser is definitely cheaper.
I mentioned this in other threads, but if I were going to have a Transit upfitted, I'd buy the high roof, long body model with the EcoBoost gasser engine. This will allow me to have either ceiling space for a drop-down bed or, a false floor. The false floor would allow for more space for batteries (would have to be AGM), water tanks and appliances, and if used as a plenum, would help with camping in below freezing weather, assuming the furnace could use the space for return air flow, and air did go around the tanks.
